It has nice surroundings and is next to the motorway, which makes it very convenient for a stay over when travelling. At reception the lady was very accommodating and we enjoyed great service at the restaurant. Pool maybe not as tranquil as expected as busy.

Room service staff were rude and the corridor outside my room smelt of cigarette smoke in the morning. Also, there was someone smoking pot in the car park at 7am on Sunday morning. Horrible experience. Breakfast staff were top notch tho as was the food so not all bad!

Windowless room but otherwise nice

Room was smart, but didn’t have any windows aside from a small very high velux. Don’t think I’ve ever seen this before in a hotel room, felt very claustrophobic. Room seemed to really fluctuate in temperature as the aircon kicked in and out. I’d say it was quite pricey for a windowless room. I’m surprised no other reviews seem to mention it. Quite a strange setup having to cross the road from the main hotel to get to the room but no big deal. Staff were otherwise very nice and the food was good. But won’t go back just for fear of getting another windowless room.
